NAME
       WMBiff - A dockable Mailbox Monitor

SYNOPSIS
       wmbiff [-display <display name>] [-geometry +XPOS+YPOS] [-c <filename>] [-h] [-v] [-debug]

DESCRIPTION
       WMbiff  displays  the status of up to five mailboxes. It gives information about new mail, if any, or total number of messages. It also has
       mail retrieval capabilies, and can be configured to do this automatically. At the moment, UNIX-style, maildir, POP3, APOP and  IMAP4  mail-
       boxes  are supported.  WMbiff also supports Licq history files and gnomeicu, displaying the number of new messages in your running session,
       as if they were mail.

       The mailboxes are displayed in 5 different lines, each one with its own description of up to five chars. If no mail is present in  a  given
       mailbox,  WMbiff  will  display	the total number of mails in cyan. If there's new mail in the box, the number of new messages will be dis-
       played in yellow. When new mail arrives, this number will optionally flash for a small period of time, and also optionally, a  command  can
       be executed on mail arrival (for example, opening your mail reader or playing a sound file).

       Pressing  mouse button 1 will execute a command, defined in the user's config file. Mouse button 3 will execute a command to fetch mail, if
       defined.
